How Does One Start In Therapy?

Patients most of the time seek a Physical Therapist, Occupational or Speech Therapist as a result of a physician order. The therapeutic benefits can be tremendously successful in improving a patient's health and physical abilities.

Physical Therapy

Maintaining an active, independent lifestyle is a vital part of living in or visiting the Truckee and North Lake Tahoe area. We treat a variety of patients including community members, professional and recreational athletes, post-surgical patients, seniors, adults, and children. We help all ages and abilities reach their goals and maintain an active and independent lifestyle. Learn more about Physical Therapy at Tahoe Forest Therapy Services.

Inpatient Physical Therapy

Our inpatient department serves patients at Tahoe Forest Hospital. They provide services during the inpatient stay for individuals that have been hospitalized and require skilled therapeutic services. Patients treated by our therapists range from postoperative patients who have received total joint replacements, patients with traumatic injuries, to patients hospitalized following illness. They also provide skilled inpatient rehabilitation services in our Skilled Nursing Facility for patients who require a longer rehab stay prior to being able to discharge home safely, as well as skilled therapy services for residents of the Tahoe Forest Long Term Care Center.
